Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to presenting the possibility of applying the theory of reflexive games in the analysis of contemporary conflicts in the information space. One of the approaches of game theory, created by Russian mathematician and psychologist Vladimir Lefevr, was analyzed in terms of its use in research on information warfare. Research methods appropriate to the social sciences were applied using modeling characteristic of classical game theory and reflexive game logic. First, the terminological convention related to information warfare is presented. Then the theory of reflexive games was presented in the context of its possible use in the analysis of information warfare. The issue of strategic perception management and ideological diversion is discussed.
